Background information regarding the ActiveX issue
In August 2003, a federal court ruled that Microsoft had infringed on a patent related to plug-in technology used in Internet Explorer.
Eolas was awarded $521 million in damages, which has ballooned to $560 million due to interest.
In response, Microsoft said it would alter how the browser implemented ActiveX, but later backed away from the switch. Software affected by the patent would include Macromedia Flash, QuickTime, RealOne Player, Acrobat Reader, Sun's Java Virtual Machine, and Windows Media Player among other applications that embed into Web pages.
But following two legal setbacks in its efforts to invalidate the Eolas patent and have the ruling appealed, Microsoft said in December it would go ahead with the update.
"Plug-ins" include objects like Flash movies and Java Applets, as well as any other components that use the EMBED, APPLET, or OBJECT HTML tags.
With the update, ActiveX controls will no longer be activated by default. The change in IE forces users to first click on the control before it will recognize any input.
As you might imagine this would be a nightmare for the users, forcing them to approve content like Flash or java applets prior to having them interact properly in the browser window.
The update is currently available as an optional download from the Microsoft Download Center and Windows Update. Microsoft said it expects the majority of IE users to download the patch as part of their security updates over the next four to six months.
Yep the Click to activate and use this control is here to stay for some time.
